The rocks exposed on the surface undergo expedite weathering process due to the effects of climatic process, etc. and the weathering process changes the properties of minerals, thereby lowering the stability of rocks. Therefore, it is important to examine the composition of minerals in order to investigate the resistance of rocks against weathering, which is performed by weathering sensitivity analysis. And microscopic flaking test was performed for the bored samples in this study and the composition of minerals that are vulnerable to weathering was measured through mode analysis. The lithological and mineralogical weathering factors were evaluated through this process. Furthermore, the degree of progress of weathering was identified by quantitatively measuring the actual mineral composition of rocks through X-Ray diffraction analysis and identifying the secondary minerals through observation with a scanning electron microscope. This analyzing the weathering sensitivity was analyzed to be capable of determining appropriate indicators that can determine weather resistance and predicting the weathering grade using chemical weathering speed.

Rocks exposed to the surface are subject to long-term weathering, and such effects weaken their engineering stability. Especially as weathering progresses, the surface of rocks will be changed by weathering, and such surface changes will affect the engineering safety of the rock mass. In addition, the chemical species produced in the weathered rock have a direct effect on the surrounding environment or on the structure. In areas where rocks are exposed, such as mining areas, chemical species produced by weathering can have a serious impact on the surrounding natural environment. In this study, accelerated weathering experiments using freeze/thaw system were conducted on rocks that had already been weathered and fresh rocks, and surface changes of each rock were observed with confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM), and chemical species were analyzed using IC/ICP-MS. As the weathering progressed, the surface roughness decreased, and the amount of chemical species produced increased. The results of this study can be used as basic data for evaluating engineering/environmental safety in areas where rocks are exposed.

화산 유리질 암석을 출발 물질로 사용하여 저온 ($80^{\circ}C$)에서 수열 처리하여 Na-P Na-X 및 Na-A 제올라이트를 합성하였다. 합성과정은 (1) 유리질 분말 시료와 알칼리 용액과의 용해.변질 반응에 의한 1차적인 Na-P의 합성 방식과 (2) 여기서 잔류된 규산질 모액에 Al(OH)3나 NaAlO2의 수용액을 공급하여 보다 고순도의 Na-P, Na-X 및 Na-A를 효과적으로 합성할 수 있었다. 원암의 암상과 조성은 제올라이트들의 화학 조성과 순도 및 백색도같은 물리적 특성에는 영향을 주지만, 합성된 제올라이트의 광물종을 규제하는 주된 요인은 아닌 것으로 해석된다. 합성된 제올라이트의 광물상은 반응 용액의 pH, Al(OH)4 및 Na+에 대한 농도 조건에 주로 의존되는 경향을 나타낸다. 또한 화산 유리질 암석을 제올라이트 합성원료로 활용하는 데에 있어서 (2)와 같음 합성 방안이 보완적으로 시행되면 그 생산성과 효율성을 제고시킬 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

Rock bowls and pots used in restaurants are one of the popular usages of natural rocks in Korea. Most rock bowls and pots are made of Mg- and Ca-rich amphibolite composed of hornblende, actinolite, tremolite, diopside, plagioclase. Hornblende occurs as prismatic crystal habit, and belongs to Mg-hornblende to tschermakite. Actinolite and tremolite occur as acicular form (aspect ratio $0.10{\sim}0.13$), and ranges 0.65 to 0.90 in Mg/(Mg+Fe) ratio. These acicular actinolite and tremolite are non-asbestos minerals. However to use of rocks containing these minerals as tableware it is needed to regulatory guidelines for stability and utility based on petrological and mineralogical characteristics. Discrepancy of rock occurrence and mineral chemistry between commercial rock bowls and original rocks indicate that most rock bowls are made of uncertain amphibolite in original location. Consequently, there is a potential risk to use inappropriate amphibolites as tableware. Therefore, it is needed to systematically research on geology and biology, and manage commercial rock bowls and pots used in Korean restaurants.

This work was carried out to establish the norm for identifying the rock forming minerals by the X-ray diffraction analysis with powdered rock samples. This study covered the eleven major rocks in Korea. The results are summarized as follows. 1. The norm for identifying the rock forming minerals based on X-ray diffraction data was established. 2. It was found that the rock forming minerals could be identified by the norm.

This study deals with the petrographic examination of aggregates(ASTM C 295) which is one of the methods to diagnose the quality of aggregates for concrete artifacts. A number of examinations including size and sieve analysis, test on the coating material, description of the weathering and contamination condition, petrographic description, and qualitative and quantitative analyses on the rocks and minerals potential to alkali-aggregates reactivity are carried out to examine the quality of aggregates. Petrographic description method examined on the fluvial aggregates from Maewhacheon A, B area, Uljin-gun, Kyungnam province shows that weathering grade ranges from F(fresh) to WS(slightly weathered) and coating material and contamination are not in a harmful condition. The weight percentage of the alkali-aggregates reactive minerals or structurally unstable rocks of the aggregates from study area covers 26% and 19% of all aggregates, respectively. So it is necessary to further identify their quality through the chemical(ASTM C 289) and mortar-bar method (ASTM C 227).
